CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of application Ser. No. 15/095,818 filed on Apr. 11, 2016, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,627,601 issued on Apr. 21, 2020, and claims the benefit under 35 USC 119(a) of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2015-0166087 filed on Nov. 26, 2015, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.

BACKGROUND 1. Field

The following description relates to an optical imaging system capable of photographing an object in both of a visible ray region and a near infrared ray region.

2. Description of Related Art

Small monitoring cameras are increasingly mounted in vehicles to photograph a front visual field and a rear visual field of the vehicle. For example, the small monitoring camera is mounted on a rearview mirror of the vehicle to photograph moving vehicles, pedestrians, and other objects, in around the vehicle.

There is a desire for a small monitoring camera capable of photographing objects in a night environment as well as in a daytime environment. However, since illumination is low in the night environment, it is difficult to clearly photograph an object. Particularly, since the small monitoring camera mounted in the vehicle has a limited size, there is a desire for a compact optical imaging system capable of photographing an object in both visible light and near infrared light.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following detailed description is provided to assist the reader in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the methods, apparatuses, and/or systems described herein. However, various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, apparatuses, and/or systems described herein will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art. The sequences of operations described herein are merely examples, and are not limited to those set forth herein, but may be changed as will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, with the exception of operations necessarily occurring in a certain order. Also, descriptions of functions and constructions that are well known to one of ordinary skill in the art may be omitted for increased clarity and conciseness.

The features described herein may be embodied in different forms, and are not to be construed as being limited to the examples described herein. Rather, the examples described herein have been provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will convey the full scope of the disclosure to one of ordinary skill in the art.

Throughout the specification, it will be understood that when an element, such as a layer, region or wafer (substrate), is referred to as being “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, it can be directly “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” the other element or other elements intervening therebetween may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element, there may be no elements or layers intervening therebetween. Like numerals refer to like elements throughout. As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

It will be apparent that though the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used herein to describe various members, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these members, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one member, component, region, layer or section from another region, layer or section. Thus, a first member, component, region, layer or section discussed below could be termed a second member, component, region, layer or section without departing from the teachings of the embodiments.

Words describing relative spatial relationships, such as “below”, “beneath”, “under”, “lower”, “bottom”, “above”, “over”, “upper”, “top”, “left”, and “right”, may be used to conveniently describe spatial relationships of one device or elements with other devices or elements. Such words are to be interpreted as encompassing a device oriented as illustrated in the drawings, and in other orientations in use or operation. For example, an example in which a device includes a second layer disposed above a first layer based on the orientation of the device illustrated in the drawings also encompasses the device when the device is flipped upside down in use or operation.

The terminology used herein is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the description. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises,” and/or “comprising” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, members, elements, and/or groups thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, members, elements, and/or groups thereof.

In addition, in the following description, a first lens refers to a lens closest to an object (or a subject), while a fifth lens refers to a lens closest to an imaging plane (or an image sensor). In addition, all radii of curvatures and thicknesses of lenses, a TTL, a Y (½ of a diagonal length of the imaging plane), and focal lengths are represented by millimeters (mm). Furthermore, thicknesses of the lenses, gaps between the lenses, and the TTL are distances measured in relation to optical axes of the lenses. Furthermore, in a description for shapes of the lenses, the meaning that one surface of a lens is convex is that an optical axis portion of a corresponding surface is convex, and the meaning that one surface of a lens is concave is that an optical axis portion of a corresponding surface is concave. Therefore, although it is described that one surface of a lens is convex, an edge portion of the lens may be concave. Likewise, although it is described that one surface of a lens is concave, an edge portion of the lens may be convex. TTL refers to a distance from a first object side surface of a first lens to an imaging plane along an optical axis.

An optical imaging system may include an optical system including a plurality of lenses. For example, the optical system of the optical imaging system may include five lenses having refractive power. However, the optical imaging system is not limited to including only the lenses having the refractive power. For example, the optical imaging system may include a stop for controlling an amount of light. Furthermore, the optical imaging system may further include an image sensor (that is, an imaging device) converting an image of a subject incident thereto through the optical system into electrical signals. Furthermore, the optical imaging system may further include a gap maintaining member adjusting a gap between lenses.

First through fifth lenses may be formed of materials having a refractive index different from that of air. For example, the first through fifth lenses may be formed of plastic or glass. At least one of the first through fifth lenses may have an aspherical shape. For example, both surfaces of the third lens may be aspherical.

An aspherical surface of each of the lenses may be represented by the following Equation 1:

$\begin{matrix} {Z = {\frac{{cr}^{2}}{1 + \sqrt{1 - {\left( {1 + k} \right)c^{2}r^{2}}}} + {Ar^{4}} + {Br}^{6} + {Cr}^{8} + {Dr}^{10} + {Er^{12}} + {Fr}^{14} + {Gr}^{16} + {Hr}^{18} + {{Jr}^{20}.}}} & (1) \end{matrix}$
